Just made me lose respect for the series (which is overrated anyway!).
Animation is very lazy but maintains the same bright and colourful style of the anime which I liked.
I can't even remember what the music was like so obviously nothing special like the opening of the show.
It was just unenjoyable boring fanservice for most of the time.
There's an entire episode that just body shames girls with flat chests which is pretty pathetic.
Not worth a watch, will lower your opinion of the overall franchise.

This is a short series of ecchi fluff nonsense and fanservice, so if you don't like that then I wouldn't recommend this.

On the other hand, if you do like that... well boy howdy do I have the thing for you. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this, especially with the many negative reviews. But it was surprisingly entertaining for the most part, though got a bit too rediculous even for me a couple of times. The episodes are pure storyless silliness, which normally I would criticize. The main reason I am not panning this is because the episodes were all 3 minutes long, keeping them from
dragging on. This entire series of shorts will only take you as long as watching one episode of a normal anime would.

For the majority of the episodes, the animation was more towards a storybook format, with mostly still frames panning across the screen to vaguely give you an idea of what is happening (or provide fanservice). The actual art looked fine, though was mixed in with real photos occasionally which was mildly odd.

The sound was as silly as the shorts, but it worked. You are essentially listening to the story, and the sound effects and music connect to the dialogue ably.

I rated this a 7 because for what it is, I think it fulfills it's purpose well. If you want some brainless fanservice absurdity starring the NGNL cast then this is for you. If not, steer clear.

When it comes to OVA's and specials its hard to tell what they wlil be like.
Some act as ways to add in a bit more story. Some act as mini brief random situations. Some... falll under the category of pointlessness focusing on the parts of the show no one likes. No Game No Life Specials fall under this category.

It is sad to see something that could've been fun to this. They could've made these specials to act as a way to see more games played out. It didn't have to be part of the story they could've just done random games. This way
we could've gotten waht is great about No Game No Life.

Think No Game No Life, except with 0% plot and 100% tasteless ecchi plot. ALONG WITH CHILD PORNOGRAPHY.

That's NGNL specials for you.

That's NGNL SPECIALS for you.

That's NGNL SPECIALS FOR YOU.

THAT'S NGNL SPECIALS FOR YOU.

If you don't want your No game No life to be ruined, don't watch the specials. They could seriously make your Star wars Christmas special better in comparison.

END OF REVIEW.

So, in account of MAL review's word limit, let me tell you a small story to pass the time.
Once upon a time, there was a hero who wanted to bring peace to the world. So, in order to do that he decided
to get rid of poverty, racial discrimination, limited resources and the cycle of hatred.

So he kept searching and searching to find the secret behind the mystery of this universe.
He kept searching and searching and searching and searching and searching and searching and searching (x1000 times) until he found out something that he had never seen.

He decided that he would treasure this gift entrusted to him.

He understood the value of this gift.

So thus began,this hero's foray into anime. And that hero is currently typing out a review of No game no life specials, ranting on about how it depicts child pornography by Madhouse. A tough job for a hero eh?
